Dior And I Thank You for the kind remarks..
As far as Weruva Food, you and I are on the same page basically. Right now her favorite foods are, Cats In The Kitchen Goldie Lox... Chicken, Tuna, and Salmon; Weruva Mideast Feast... Tuna and Tilapia; and Earthborn Monterey Medley... Tuna and...
Yes, we did try the plain FF chicken flavor... ate it for a few days, then turned her nose up at it. She does eat FF, plain Fish Feast. Fish is all she will eat which I really dislike giving her all the time. I have tried zillions of different brands of chicken, beef, duck, rabbit, etc...
Oh Thanks. That's great... I have bought SO MUCH food that just sits around because my krazy cats like to mess with me !! I appreciate the websites. I'll go check them out.
Dior is up to her usual "stuff". Initially she liked the Gourmet Natural Chicken And Liver. Shortly after I purchased a case she changed her mine!! No worries (LOL) I have lots of different brands in my "warehouse" of foods previous cats did not like!
Thanks for the heads up on catinof.org. I'll check it out. In a pinch, I"ll add up the % of protein, fat, moisture, fiber and ash. Then I subtract that total from 100. Sometimes, though, for whatever reason it doesn't "Add up" correctly... like the answer ends up a minus number !! LOL
Hi All !! Purina got back to me re the carb count in the new Fancy Feast Gourmet Naturals.... The Carb % For The White Meat Chicken And Liver Pate Without Gravy (There Are 2) Is 0.64% As Fed. Cheers !!!
Thanks for your thoughts... your reasoning is good, but Dior is VERY laid back. I'd rather have her on a schedule. I've had her for a few months, and she has never woke me up early in the am. She walks so slowly to the kitchen sometimes I wonder if she even wants to eat. She always does though...
Ha... Great thinking on your part... I was being more black and white (I usually always am!). So, I never thought of calling her and if she wakes then she eats... if she falls back to sleep and does not eat.. no worries !! Excellent !! Works for me.. Cheers !!!
YUP ! I have a reason !! Here is a link to an article on Cat Centric.org on "How Often Should You feed Your Cat?". Very interesting, lots of good info. The article recommends a minimum of 3 times per day and 4 if you can handle it.
Here's the link... How often should you feed your cat?
Hi All... I am changing my cat's eating schedule from 3 times a day to 4. The question is if it's time to eat and she's sleeping do you wake her, or let her eat when she wakes up which screws up the schedule. TIA.
Oops, sorry bout that. That was pretty dumb on my part. One super big "DUH"!!. LOL. Thanks for correcting me, and saving me from further embarrassment !!
I have to correct my previous post... Not all of the Gourmet Naturals are Wheat Gluten Free... only a few... sorry for the goof !! Have to read the ingredients list... Chicken And Liver With Coconut Milk is the one I'm going to try.
Have A Great Sunday Everybody !!!
My 2 Cents... I read somewhere that some cats will gag or throw when making the transition from dry to wet. I just found the article.. its by Lisa Pierson..DVM..
entitled "Transitioning Feline Dry Food Addicts To Canned Wet Food". In part and I quote...
Another complaint that I often hear is...
THANK YOU so much of the links. I thought I knew as much as I needed to know concerning cat food, but I have learned so much more since coming here. The links you provided gave me even more valuable information. I have turned from a Fancy Feast hater to a Fancy Feast user.... Only thing left...
I am so sorry to hear Tobermorey has IBD. A previous cat of mine, Belle, had very bad IBD. It tore me apart when I could see she was in pain, or just not happy. I feel for you and Tobermorey. The Best Of Luck To The Both Of You !!
Thanks To Everyone For Your Thoughts And Suggestions.
I came across a relatively new FF product... Fancy Feast Gourmet Naturals
On Chewy you can check off "Gluten Free". 3 choices plus a variety pack come up. Be careful the Wild Alaskan Salmon (Extreme Right) does have Wheat Gluten in it...
Edit To 1st Post.... I saw on Chewy... lots of Wheat Gluten in Chicken Feast With Milk.. And how do you edit a post. I can't seem to find an Edit Button ??
Cheers !!
Hi Everyone !!
Recently I changed my 3 year old shelter cat from dry food to Fancy Feast. Now I'm trying to upgrade her wet food and the issue I am seeing is this.... I start mixing the new food (slightly less than a teaspoon of new food to a full can of FF). She eats, it but every time, no...
